Team Captains 2016/2017

I have published a list of Team Captains for 2016/2017 on the right hand side of this page. This list is based on your 2015/2016 details. I have made any changes that I am aware of but I'm sure that many of you will have had your AGM's by now and some entries on this list may now be incorrect. Can I please ask everybody to review the list and notify me of any changes as soon as possible.
